Howard Lyman's testimony on The Oprah Winfrey Show revealed the deadly impact of the livestock industry on our well-being. It not only led to Oprah's declaration that she'd never eat a burger again, it sent shock waves through a concerned and vulnerable public.
A fourth-generation Montana rancher, Lyman investigated the use of chemicals in agriculture after developing a spinal tumor that nearly paralyzed him. Now a vegetarian, he blasts through the propaganda of beef and dairy interests -- and the government agencies that protect them -- to expose an animal-based diet as the primary cause of cancer, heart disease, and obesity in this country. He warns that the livestock industry is repeating the mistakes that led to Mad Cow disease in England while simultaneously causing serious damage to the environment.
Persuasive, straightforward, and full of the down-home good humor and optimism of a son of the soil, Mad Cowboy is both an inspirational story of personal transformation and a convincing call to action for a plant-based diet -- for the good of the planet and the health of us all.

This is a very powerful book from someone who knows exactly what he is talking about. Future generations will wonder why such a voice of truth and sincerity was left on the sidelines. They may ask why was this book not taught in all classrooms, instead of Shakespeare, history and civics. Its still not too late for us as a human race to mind our ways and make corrections. This planet's resources are being plundered at an incredible rate by the big corporations under the legitimacy they receive from the... more info
Drivel:
Next they will be telling us that global warming is real. Honestly, just because a few under informed people decided that cigarettes are bad for you, everybody has to jump on their soapbox. This misguided author decides to re-examine what he was taught in college based upon his first hand experience and the recommendations of his father, a life long cattle rancher. How stupid is that? Next they will be saying that when you see a bald eagle, it's because of Rachel Carson and that DDT propaganda. I've... more info
